'Bangladesh wasn't born to live off others or on the mercy of others and be dependent on them.'

Then why are we taking the World Bank's funding for other development projects? If I take loans from a bank to build my house, it does not imply that I am living at the mercy of that bank. Banks give me money and I give them interest. Simple math.

Bangladesh has been relying and will always rely on foreign aid and borrow money from other multilateral bodies. PM Sheikh Hasina's government has borrowed tremendous amount of money from foreign countries.

Good thinking, but it would have been better if the govt had realised this before the World Bank denied the loan to build the Padma Bridge.

At the end of the day everything comes down to money.
